UNSPSC 76122401: Demurrage fee

Compensation paid for detention of a ship, freight car, or other cargo conveyance during loading or unloading beyond the scheduled time of departure.

UNSPSC 76122401 Demurrage fee is a Commodity code that describes charges incurred for the use of transportation equipment or facilities beyond an agreed rental or transit period. State and local procurement activity under this code shows minimal recent alignment with its nominal scope. The two most recent opportunities posted under this code are substantively unrelated to demurrage assessment or collection: one solicits an adaptive tractor and front-end loader package for vocational rehabilitation, the other recruits a full-time statewide property auditor for a state human services department. Neither involves transportation equipment detention charges, freight-yard holding fees, or demurrage logistics. The Texas Workforce Commission and Mississippi Department of Human Services are the issuing bodies represented, but their postings do not reflect typical demurrage procurement activity.

No state or local opportunities in the source present an actual demurrage fee service, fee-calculation tool, demurrage management contract, or related transportation-detention charge work. The code shows little relevant recent activity, and the two opportunities tagged under it represent a mismatch between the code's intended scope and what is actually being solicited under its number in the current market.
